Abstract
The low-energy properties of Be/sup 9/ art investigated on the basis of the alpha -particle model by making use of alpha - alpha and n- alpha interactions. Variational calculations are made in which the effects of the Pauli principle due to the internal structure of alpha particles are taken into account. In particular, the inclusion of the dynamics between alpha particles affects strongly the quadrupole moment, and the predicted value becomes considerably smaller than the value of the usual alpha -particle model. The ground-state moments mu and Q and low-lying negative parity energy levels are consistently explained by the present model. This means that the alpha - clusters in Be/sup 9/ are well localized and the interaction between inner alpha -clusters may be not so much different from the free alpha - alpha interaction. (auth)
